Watch: Graham Henry hilariously talks substitutions and Stephen Donald
Graham Henry fantastically and honestly recounts the chain of events that lead to Stephen Donald stepping up to take the World Cup winning kick in 2011.
It's refreshing to hear the human side of Henry and get an insight into his thoughts during the 2011 fly-half crisis, which led to Stephen Donald, who was out fishing for whitebait receiving a call-up.
You can still hear the exasperation in his voice when re-telling the events of that fateful night in October.
"Donald comes on, God... and kicks this goal."
"He kicked the fastest penalty goal in the history of the game, boom, boom."
Just inside the right upright, we finished up smashing them 8-7 and that's why I'm talking to you today."

Hard disagree. For those who want to turn rugby into league, there’s already league: a sport nobody cares about, globally speaking.
The beauty of rugby is in its variability: many different ways to win. I want to see running rugby, I want to see free flow counter-attacking rugby, but I also want to see mauls, and scrums, and lineouts, and proper breskdown battles with exciting turnovers.
There is a reason rugby is a top 10 global sport, whereas no one really gives a hoot about league. You’ve seen 20mins of a league match, you’ve seen it all.
I don’t want to see rugby degrade into 80 mins of foot race. And I don’t think, that that’s what the majority of rugby fans want.

Don’t think the Bears are legit title contenders. You can lose, but not like this. Getting bent over and pumped like this completely removes the fear factor of s team.
